This weekend I went out to the garage, and selected one of the dry branches I'd picked out that I wanted to use for making staves.

I stripped the back, hardened it with a metal steak, and then put this design on it.

I did the design using a candle. The wood isn't actually burned, you just put the stick close enough to the candle that it put a layer of soot on it. Then I sprayed it with clear laquer so it wouldn't rub off.

Just thought I'd share Its pretty easy to do, and fun, if you care to give it a try.

I think i have pictures of a staff I made once, using Theif III glyphs and a real woodburner. However, my mom broke it because she's just like that. Yours look a lot better anyway.

Oh, and salsa, i couldn't find hte picture, but i'd post if if i did.
